New Grad- System Engineer

Who We Are With its A.I.-powered robotic technology platform, Symbotic is changing the way consumer goods move through the supply chain. Intelligent software orchestrates advanced robots in a high-density, end-to-end system – reinventing warehouse automation for increased efficiency, speed and flexibility. What We Need Symbotic is seeking a System Engineer to support the day-to-day reliability, availability, and performance of our automated warehouse systems in a live production environment. The System Engineer focuses on troubleshooting, maintaining, and stabilizing complex electro‑mechanical and automated systems to ensure safe, consistent system uptime. This role is not commissioning‑focused, not controls‑programming‑heavy, and not customer‑facing, but instead centered on system health, equipment reliability, and technical execution on site. What You’ll Do Monitor and maintain the health of automated systems including conveyors, lifts, robotic vehicles, motors, sensors, and PLC‑controlled equipment. Perform electrical, mechanical, and automation troubleshooting to resolve production‑impacting issues. Diagnose failures across PLCs (Allen‑Bradley), VFDs, AC/DC motors, servo motors, sensors, and control hardware. Support and execute preventive and corrective maintenance activities on automated equipment. Utilize system data, alarms, logs, and dashboards to identify fault conditions and recurring issues. Document maintenance activities, repairs, and findings using CMMS systems (e.g., Maximo) and internal tools. Act as a technical escalation point during system disruptions or downtime events. Partner with on‑site maintenance, operations, and technical teams to restore and stabilize system performance. Provide technical guidance and on‑the‑job support to maintenance technicians and operators. Step in to support critical on‑site technical functions as needed to maintain operational continuity. Ensure compliance with OSHA, LOTO, electrical safety, and Symbotic safety standards. What You’ll Need Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, Software Engineering, Automation Engineering, or a related field. Internship, co‑op, academic project, or early career experience with PLCs (preferably Allen‑Bradley), VFDs, AC/DC motors, or automated systems. Exposure to troubleshooting and maintaining automation equipment such as conveyors, lifts, robotics, or electro‑mechanical systems. Basic working knowledge of SQL, Python, or Linux for diagnostics, system interaction, or technical problem‑solving. Strong mechanical and electrical aptitude, with the ability to learn and support complex automation and robotics systems in a fast‑paced environment. Interest in maintenance engineering, automation, or controls‑focused career paths. Our Environment Work is performed in an active industrial environment with high levels of automation. Ability to work at heights of up to 45 feet and within confined spaces. Ability to lift and/or move up to 50 pounds. Exposure to varying temperatures and production conditions. Must comply with all PPE, LOTO, fall protection, and electrical safety requirements. Ability to work flexible hours, including off‑shifts, as needed to support system uptime and recovery. Valid driver’s license required.
